Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The invention is in the field of dairy products and relates to acidified milk products and the resulting use in end products, as well as processes for the preparation of the products.

STATE OF THE ART

Sauce or sauce is a liquid to creamy bound, spicy addition to hot and cold dishes, salads and desserts. There are a number of basic sauces, such as Sauce Espagnoe (a bound dark-based sauce) or Sauce Veloute (also white base sauce), a bright roux-bound sauce based on a light-colored or bechamel-based sauce Hollandaise sauce. The tomato sauce is often counted among the basic sauces.

Tomato sauce is a simple sauce based on cooked, passed tomato from the Italian kitchen, which is the basis of many dishes such. B. spaghetti alla napoletana forms. It was probably invented in southern Italy in the 18th century, when the first red, large tomato cultivars were spread. The simplest form consists only of tomatoes thickened by boiling, which are then swept through a sieve to remove cores and skin. It is usually preserved by boiling and later processed according to the recipe. A typical Italian tomato sauce (salsa di pomodoro) also contains spicy vegetables such as carrot, celery, onion and garlic, which are steamed in oil before the tomatoes are added. The cooked to the desired consistency sauce is again passed, with salt and pepper, possibly also a little wine vinegar and sugar flavored and finished with olive oil. Often it is still flavored with herbs such as basil, oregano, laurel, etc. In addition, there are countless variations and additions with mostly spicy ingredients, such as olives, anchovies, capers, pepperoni or dried mushrooms.

For classic tomato sauce (tomato sauce), bacon, root vegetables and onions are finely diced with thyme, basil and bay leaf in butter, dusted with flour, after a short break with broth or fish stock, topped up with tomato puree or purée and finally passed. It is served with fried meat or fish and seafood or processed as a basic sauce according to recipe.

The said tomato-based sauce is usually also the base on pizza dough. The base sauce on pizza is, with some exceptions, as on tarte, in the the base coating is crème fraiche, sour cream or sour cream, exclusively on a tomato basis. The tomato sauce is a very spicy sauce, in which the basic taste of tomatoes prevails and is very much in the foreground. The tomatos flavor mostly covers the gustatory perception of the other spices in the tomato sauce, which have a finer note.

The present invention therefore an object of the invention to provide a sauce or base sauce, as an alternative to the tomato sauce, which avoids the aforementioned disadvantages in the perception of taste. Furthermore, the sauce should support the spicy notes of the other ingredients in the sauce. The sauce or basic sauce should be used in particular as Grundbelagsauce on pizza dough, the pizza can be both a frozen pizza or a freshly made pizza. Therefore, it was a further object of the invention to provide a sauce which is smooth and has good flowability so that it can be quickly and easily applied to the dough by machine, even in the production of frozen pizza. Such a sauce should therefore have a stable baking and freeze-thaw stability.

Production of sour milk ¹

Acidified dairy products are usually made with the help of bred lactic acid bacteria. Before inoculation with lactic acid bacteria, the milk (eg skimmed milk) is adjusted to the target fat content, pasteurized and homogenized. The inoculated milk is allowed to clot at certain temperatures. The expert also says the milk is being incubated. With the breeding bacteria certain acidity levels can be adjusted. Once a certain level of acidity is reached, the milk is rapidly cooled to prevent the activity of lactic acid bacteria. The naturally formed acid is a preservative that is why sour milk products last longer than just pasteurized milk products. Sour milk products are distinguished by three characteristics: taste, texture and fat content. In detail, this looks like this: The taste varies from manufacturer to manufacturer. It ranges from mild to strong sour. By targeted interruption of the acidification and the choice of certain bacterial cultures, the taste is determined. The texture of a sour milk product is resistant to staining after soaking, you can spoon it. Crucially, how the consumer gets it is whether or not it is sold in the vessel into which it was acidified. For acidification in large-capacity tanks, the milk must be stirred until it is full. The milk is no longer solid and is drinkable. If, on the other hand, milk is acidified directly in the packaging cups, it is offered as a stable fermented milk.

Yogurt and sour milk are very similar. The yoghurt in appearance is still slightly thicker than the thick milk and has a more intense taste. The main difference lies in the selection of lactic acid bacteria in the production. Yoghurt requires so-called thermophilic cultures (Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus), whose growth optimum is between 35 ° C and 45 ° C.

For the production of sour milk mesophilic lactic acid bacteria cultures are used, the optimum of which is at temperatures around 22 ° C to 33 ° C. The production process requires 14 to 18 hours at approx. 25 ° C for the thick milk.

Production of cream

Cream, cream or cream is created by creaming the milk. Here, the milk segregates, as the emulsified milk fat emulsion drops rise to the surface due to the lower density and float there as cream, which can be skimmed off as such, skim milk settles down as a heavier phase. The prerequisite for natural creaming is that the milk has not been homogenized, since this causes the fat globules to be broken up and restructured, which slows down the creaming process. As a rule, cream is no longer obtained by creaming but by centrifuging. Here, the milk fat is separated as much as possible, so that the remaining skimmed milk only has a fat content of 0.01% to 0.06%. The desired fat content of the final product is achieved by blending both products. Goods bearing the name "cream" must have a minimum fat content of 10%.

Cream contains less milk protein than milk, but more fat and fat-soluble vitamins. It is a raw material for the butter and cheese production, but is also used "sweet" or acidified fresh in the kitchen.

Food ingredients A. Herbal preparation / spices

The nature of the herbs contained in the preparation and final composition according to the invention is not limited. In addition, the herbal preparation or spices may also contain salt, sugar, garlic and onion.

For example, herbs and spices such as wild garlic, basil, mugwort, savory, borage, watercress, dill, tarragon, chervil, cress, lovage, marjoram, lemon balm, mint, oregano, paprika, parsley, dried tomato powder, pepper, pimpinelle, rosemary, Sage, sorrel, chives, thyme, hyssop, singly or in any combination. It is still possible to use so-called Indian, Asian or exotic herbs and spices. These can be, for example, coriander, cardamom, ginger, saffron, lemongrass, lemongrass, curry, chili, clove. Basically any kind of edible herbs can be incorporated.

The herbs can be added in any form. You can e.g. in chopped, chopped form, as extract, in fresh form or in dried, frozen or heat-treated form.

In a first embodiment, the preparations contain herbs in the form of finely chopped fresh herbs. Alternatively, an aqueous herb paste may be used, which preferably contains a water content of about 50 to about 85 wt .-%.

It has proven to be advantageous to use a ready-made herbal paste with a water content of about 20 to 85 wt .-% and a dry matter of 25 to 85 wt .-%, preferably for example 55 wt .-% water content and a dry matter content of about 45 wt .-% use. The herbal paste may contain different fresh, frozen or dried herbs and / or spices as needed. In a preferred embodiment, the herb paste contains, among other things, for example, herbs, salt, spices, garlic and onions. The herbal paste is used in the acidified milk product in an amount of 3 to 15%, preferably 6 to 15%.

B. vegetable fats and vegetable oils

As explained above, the concomitant use of vegetable fats or vegetable oils is not a requirement for the preparations according to the invention. However, it may be advantageous in selected cases to use small quantities of up to 5% by weight, based on the preparation of these substances.

Vegetable fats give the herbal preparation a higher dimensional stability at room temperature. They serve as a matrix for the composition. Natural vegetable fats such as e.g. hardened palm oil or coconut fat.

Acidity regulators are food additives that keep the acidity or the basicity and thus the desired pH of a food constant. They are mostly organic acids and their salts, carbonates, more rarely inorganic acids and their salts. The addition of an acidity regulator partly enhances the stability and strength of the food, causes a desired precipitation and enhances the effect of preservatives. Unlike acidulants, they are not used to alter the taste of food. Their effect is based on the formation of a buffer system in the food, in which the addition of acidic or basic substances, the pH value does not or only slightly. Examples are:

Thickeners are substances that are primarily able to bind water. Removal of unbound water increases the viscosity. From a characteristic of each thickener concentration occur to this effect Network effects, which lead to a mostly disproportionate increase in viscosity. In this case, it is said that molecules 'communicate' with each other, that is, they sleep. Most thickeners are linear or branched macromolecules (eg, polysaccharides or proteins) that interact with each other through intermolecular interactions such as hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic interactions, or ionic relationships. Extreme cases of thickening agents are phyllosilicates (bentonites, hectorites) or hydrated SiO2 particles, which are dispersed in the form of particles and can bind water in their solid-like structure or interact with one another due to the interactions described above.
